For example, when I tested on my standalone Debian (sid) box,
evaluating the below code just after starting Emacs returns annoying
result.
(progn
(require 'dns)
(dns-set-servers)
dns-servers)
-> ("c")
We need to validate dns-servers's value to judge whether
dns-set-servers succeeded contorary docstring of dns-set-servers,
which says dns-servers is non-nil when dns-set-servers succeeded. I
think docstring or actual behavior of dns-set-servers should be fixed.
I noticed another problem in dns.el. dns-query function returns
message's string ("No DNS server configuration found") when
dns-servers is nil.
